Description
NOTE: THE DESCRIPTION BELOW APPLIES TO ALL 3 MODULES.
Molly has wondered off…, again, and in Level 1 – Story 8, Molly’s in the Mud, no one knew where she was. Molly always seems to be up to something and this time she’s been cornered by a big dog that’s not being nice.
To get away from the dog, Molly ran off and found a mud hut that her brother, Tot Hog, had built some time ago. Molly hid in the mud hut. This is where Tot Hog found Molly and Tot Hog is forced to defend Molly from the big dog. He throws soft mud balls at the big dog and the dog runs away. Molly helped by making the mud balls for Tot Hog.
